Main Materials of Aluminum Alloy Doors
The core material for making aluminum alloy doors is, of course, the aluminum alloy profile, which is equivalent to the door's skeleton. 6-series aluminum alloy is usually chosen, as this material achieves an ideal balance between strength and corrosion resistance. The thickness of the profile is typically between 1.2mm and 2.0mm, depending on the door's size and purpose. In addition to the aluminum profile, tempered glass or double-glazed glass is needed as the door leaf filling material, ensuring both safety and improved sound and heat insulation.
Essential Connecting Accessories
The assembly of aluminum alloy doors relies on various connecting accessories:
Hardware: Including hinges, locks, handles, etc., ensuring smooth opening and closing and safety performance.
Sealing strips: Usually made of EPDM rubber, providing waterproofing, sound insulation, and heat insulation.
Angle brackets: Used to connect various parts of the door frame, ensuring structural stability.
Screws and expansion tubes: Used to fix the door frame to the wall.
Surface Treatment and Decorative Materials
The final step is to make the aluminum alloy door both practical and aesthetically pleasing. Common surface treatment methods include anodizing and powder coating. The former forms a dense protective layer of aluminum oxide, while the latter offers a wide range of color options. In addition, some high-end products use wood grain transfer technology to give aluminum alloy doors the visual effect of solid wood.
